Xie Jingheng, the prince of the Marquis of Jingan, and Shen Zhiyi, a poor medical girl who is gentle and filial, have a sweet story about their tender first encounter under the rain of apricot blossoms and a lifelong relationship.
Xie Jingheng went to the south of the Yangtze River to recuperate due to an old illness. He fell in love with Shen Zhiyi, a girl collecting herbs in the alley, and started to approach her gently step by step. He did not rely on his noble status, but only treated each other sincerely. He gave her food every day, guarded her silently, and took good care of her and her mother. He used his delicate and sincere tenderness to knock on the door of the girl's heart little by little, and healed her inferiority complex caused by her disparity in status.
From secret love to frank feelings, from three letters and six etiquettes to proposing marriage to ten miles of red makeup, Xie Jingheng doted on Shen Zhiyi, doing everything by himself, giving her full respect and preference. After their marriage, the two lived a quiet life, filled with warmth every day. Shen Zhiyi used medical skills to carefully regulate his body, while Xie Jingheng responded to her tenderness with his lifelong love. From being in love to having a son and a daughter, the two stayed together year after year.
